Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take action in line with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for stress, anxiety, and adjusting to life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and other mood concerns. It emphasizes practical skills and measurable progress.

Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the center of the process, with the therapist offering empathy and support as the client explores their own solutions and strengths. This approach can be helpful for building self-esteem and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey - Mariellen collaborates with each person to determine which strategies fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review options and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and different life circumstances. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent, accessible support so clients can work toward their goals from locations that suit them.
